USAR ACPITrollerTM 342 UR8HC342 USAR ACPITrollerTM 342 Robust 8042 Keyboard / ACPI-Embedded Controller Description The USAR ACPITrollerTM 342 UR8HC342 is a single IC that functions both as an 8042-type Human Input Device Controller (HIDC) and an ACPI-compliant Embedded Controller (EC). The UR8HC342 provides the typical functionality of an 8042-type HID Controller with embedded key and motion scanning. In addition, the UR8HC342 functions as an ACPIcompliant Embedded Controller (EC) and SMBus host. The IC achieves unparalleled minimum power consumption (typically less than 1µA) due to USAR's patented Zero-Power™ technologies for both PS/2 ports and the SMBus port - an industry first. The USAR ACPITroller™ 342 can power down even when devices are connected and active. Based on USAR's patented ZeroPower™ technology, the UR8HC342 always operates in the "STOP" mode, independently of the configuration and without any data or event losses. Using the UR8HC342, system designers can implement systems that take advantage of the SMBus, the Smart Battery System, and the ACPI specifications, all using a single IC. The UR8HC342 can be customized easily through an extensive library of hardware and firmware modules in order to accommodate specialized configurations at low production cost.
